Given the Evo's ****** gearbox, stuck in a ****** 3500 lb chassis with ****** 25% AWD drivetrain loss, that should be neither hard nor expensive. :1

The swap sucks because the motor and tranny are mounted on opposite sides. The wiring isn't horrbile if you use the turbo harness and all autometer gauges and this and this and this and that .... oh ---- it buy a turbo one I helped with the swap in one and ---- that it ran but none of the lights worked right nothing. We ended up wiring all the lights and ---- up race car style to switches in the radio area.

first off, cmoney you need to shut the hell up. All because you have had bad luck/suck at working on eclipses doesnt mean others have to. lemme guess you would of told neu, the guy with the red escort, that it is dumb to rock one and that he should go with something else. or that every guy here that has turboed a d15b2 is stupid and should go kill themselves. or even the guy that dropped a 1.5L d series in his integra that he is a ------- moron and should burn in hell. no i think not. this site isnt strictlky for hondas and acuras or even for the highend trim of a certain vehicle. its for the guy that wants to turbocharge his ------- car no matter what the engine, and the topics that go along with it. you dick, ive been here for almsot three years and bitch *** people such as yourself tend to degrade things around here simply because you cant comprehend them. Also, if i chose to use nitrous instead of boosting an engine it doenst make me a ricer you *** it means i looked at my options and felt that it was the best bang for my buck. So just think twice before you open that mouth of yours.

Ju - it doesnt really matter about the money now does it? i can put a ---- load of money into any vehice and make it fast. the only think im saying is the cash flow on my side is a little low so things get done slower.As far as FWD Vs AWD i could give a ---- and i wont have any excuses, thats because i understand how ---- works. Of course you are gonna take off like a bat out of hell, i know this man, but if i walk on you then i dont want you to cry about it. As far as from a roll is concerned it basically eliminates the launch factor and also the type of drivetrain doesnt really come into play. if i did run it i would do both just to know where i stand. if from a launch you beat me but frron a roll and im even close to staying with you then im happy. only thing i dont want to hear is that we ran it from a launch and when you topped out second, you won.

just as a notice i doubt ill be ready by the all member meet. im not backing out or being a bitch im just letting you know where im at financially. i was fired and out of work for about a week and i jsut recently found a new job so there was another little hiccup in my plans.other then that saving money up for my setup is going to be slow until late oct /early november. that is when i can refinance my scion and will have more cash to dump into the eclipse.

For some reason I thought you had said something about you being in a money crunch, that's why I brought up money. Otherwise, hey good luck with it. I know what I'd do if I were you, but I'm not you, and to each his own. Post up once you're done because I'll be curious. And if I go down to Pensacola to meet up with my old friend, we'll line em up. From a dig, AND from a roll
